Frivolous filksong about firelizards....
Firelizard Song
[Tune: "Wildwood Flower"]

There are fire lizards twined in my raven black hair,
and I cain't get 'em loose, and they're cutting off my air!
There's a bronze on my left ear and a green on my right,
and that mess overhead is a queen's mating flight!

Well, I once was a singer; I had a fine career.
People came from all around me, my music for to hear.
Then the firelizards found me and my life sure did change,
'cause they cain't sing the words, and their descants are strange!

Oh, their eyes whirl around -- it makes me kinda faint!
And a tabernacle choir, my firelizards ain't!
How I long for a prince on an old-fashioned horse,
or a Firelizard Catcher, abetted by the Force!

[End frivolously, with repeat of first verse]

Yes, that song is now officially stuck in my head. This is definitely not a bad thing - thank-you.

Lovely! Your work? May I sing it? I'm a filk singer with absolutely no gift for composition.

I love it! Especially the instruction to "end frivolously."

That is DELIGHTFUL. Of all things I've been reading those books again recently...

OOO, thanks.

I've just saved it to a document file (Ozarque LJ icon and all) for my filk book, too.

Alas, I won't be at Conestoga to sing it back to you, but I *will* be singing it.
